Summary of Bill HR 4645

Bill 115 HR 4645, also known as the East Rosebud Wild and Scenic Rivers Act, is a piece of legislation introduced in the US Congress. The purpose of this bill is to designate a segment of the East Rosebud Creek in Montana as a wild and scenic river. This designation would provide protection for the river and its surrounding area, preserving its natural beauty and recreational opportunities for future generations.

The East Rosebud Creek is known for its pristine waters, diverse wildlife, and stunning scenery. Designating it as a wild and scenic river would ensure that it remains free-flowing and undeveloped, protecting it from potential threats such as pollution, dams, and excessive development.

Supporters of the bill argue that protecting the East Rosebud Creek as a wild and scenic river will not only benefit the environment, but also boost the local economy by attracting tourists and outdoor enthusiasts to the area. If passed, the East Rosebud Wild and Scenic Rivers Act would be a significant step towards conserving one of Montana's most cherished natural resources. It would demonstrate Congress's commitment to preserving our nation's wild and scenic rivers for future generations to enjoy.
